1 | is the NIV a good bible to read? | Bible general Archive 1 | kalos | 16253 | ||
Ray, my dear brother in the Lord. We don't agree on everything, yet I still esteem you as better than myself. You are a precious brother. But, I must point out that we are very much not in agreement when you say the NIV does not recognize the Deity of Christ. This is absurd. I know there's no changing your mind. You have already heard all the arguments refuting your beliefs about capitalization. So it would do no good whatever for me to repeat them. But this is a pretty serious accusation to bring against any translation. Every man has a right to his opinion, but no man has the right to be wrong in his facts. |

Hi kalos, Most probably all the translators of the NIV believe in the Deity of Christ. My statement, "I don't see it recognizing His Diety" is indeed only an opinion. I don't "see it" because Deity isn't capitalized. I looked over Nolan's references for determining a good translation. I would be happy to share some thoughts about them and how some of those verses, even in the NIV, could "appear" to deny God's Deity when correct capitalization is not utilized. Those verses apply to all translations and so I would suggest a new thread. |
